About Me



I founded Tom Edwards Design in early 2015 with the goal of producing top-quality artwork for clients, regardless of the subject or genre. I've had the privilege of working with top sci-fi authors like G.J. Ogden, Scott Bartlett, James Rosone, Ken Lozito, Daniel Arenson, and Craig Martelle. These collaborations have honed my artistic skills and deepened my understanding of the genre, allowing me to create iconic covers that resonate with fans.

I am passionate about helping new authors bring their unique worlds to life. Guiding emerging voices through the creative process and watching their stories take flight is incredibly rewarding. Working directly with authors lets me understand their vision and translate it into captivating covers that resonate with readers. This collaborative process has enriched my creative journey and forged strong, lasting relationships with clients. My blend of artistic skill and genre-specific knowledge has made me a sought-after artist, contributing to many successful book projects.

Author Testimonials

Hundreds of authors have trusted me with their vision, here are a few...

Scott Bartlett

"I consider Tom Edwards' artwork central to selling my books. It's the first thing the reader sees - the first step he or she takes on the path to reading my work. An Edwards cover is instantly recognizable by its quality and style, yet Tom’s range is extensive, and he always succeeds in giving me exactly what I want: a cover that signals strongly to the readers of my genre, while differentiating my books within that genre. On top of that, Tom’s a professional and a truly nice guy. It’s my privilege to recommend him as a cover artist."

Si Clarke

"When I was working on my latest novel, I knew stock art wasn’t going to cut it. Weirdly, there just weren’t any stock photos of day-glow pink spaceships shaped like teapots. Who could have predicted? I set out to find an artist, researching science fiction art. And then I researched some more. The same name kept popping up. Tom Edwards. I messaged him – and I’m so glad I did. I mean, have you seen the glorious, ridiculous, completely unique cover image he created for The Left Hand of Dog? I’m a very happy customer. And just like Arnie says, I’ll be back"

Ethan Proud

"Tom is great to work with, efficient, smooth, and quick! The whole process from the rough to final files only took two weeks. I am absolutely floored by the work he did and with only a brief description to work off of, he created a cover that matched the vision in my head and the theme of my book. Will definitely be going back for more covers. After putting countless hours into my book, Tom gave it the professional finish it needed. Whether traditionally or self-published, Tom's art will make your work stand out!"

Ralph Kern

"Tom is simply the best cover artist working in the business today. He has gained a reputation, and a following, for creating the most beautiful and eye-catching covers - Just what authors want, and what readers seek. Not only is his end-product excellent, but he is a pleasure to work with. He shows an amazing ability to not only translate briefs into exactly what is envisaged but also gives a cover designer mindset, to ensure it looks great on both screen and print."

Henry Roberts

"The work of Mr. Edwards is truly remarkable. Not only did he work precisely as he said he would, on time and to specifications, but he was also very easy to work with. He never complained about my nit-picking, never objected to having issues pointed out, and always fixed them quickly and with flare. All I had to do was give him a sketch, some parameters and he brought my idea to life. His pictures are fantastically detailed. I found myself just staring at the covers he made for me, and the longer I did, the more detail I picked up, it was truly a fantastic experience, a great thing to see. I would actually recommend him to struggling authors out there, or those suffering from writer's block. Give him your details, let him draw something for you, you'll find yourself suddenly able to write again. Thanks very much, Mr. Edwards, you are fantastic!"

Craig Martelle

"Tom has done six covers of six in my best-selling Free Trader series. I couldn't be happier with the perfect alignment between the covers and the story arc. It starts with a simple paragraph describing the scene, then Tom does the rest. I've had to make no changes to what Tom has created in his mind and put on paper. Tom delivers a quality product, on time, in all the formats I asked for. Tom makes it easy, giving me eye-popping art that draws readers to my books."
